  • Are you posting this ironically?

    Nothing to do with the four year long onslaught by the press that turned Corbyn from someone who was a bit scruffy into a radical demagogue. Not even a mention of it. Articles like that make me wonder if these journalists have actually ever stepped outside of London and spoken to regular people. It doesn’t take long before you hear countless people regurgitating the same untrue Daily Express, Telegraph, Sun and Mail headlines verbatim.

    If people are really going to swallow that one dimensional narrative without even acknowledging the part that misinformation has played since Corbyn became leader and during this election campaign - they photoshopped Diane Abbot’s fucking shoe on election day - then we really are doomed.

  • No it was not an ironic post. I'm not sure that "the media" is a sufficient explanation to the current outcome.

    Also, the article is pretty clear that much of his opinion came from travelling around the country speaking to people.

    Are you suggesting that the rest of the article has no basis?
